July 10, 2025

This is the 39th edition of my newsletter - As always, thank you for reading.

It’s the 10st of July, Summer is officially in full swing!

I have been super busy at work and have been neglecting my own learning, time to get back to it, this newsletter is dedicated to what I am going to be learning for the rest of 2025, pretty much AI,AI and more AI.

This past week I did my first live stream of 2025 which you can watch below. I invited Doug Finke who is a someone I consider to be an AI enthusiast like myself althought Doug has done a lot more than I have its got me wanting to do more.

Side note: a couple of my good friends werent renewed as MVP’s this year and Im sad that they are no longer MVP’s but they always be MVP’s in my eyes.

Thank you to everyone who was on the live stream!
